    My G23 bites!

    ...well, at least the trigger sure does a number to my trigger finger. For whatever reason, my G23 gives my a horrible blister on my trigger finger that my G21 never did. Anyone else have this issue? It's like the safe action lever thing just gnaws the skin off my index finger.

    Toughen up! Or get a G17 smooth trigger over the 23's target trigger. Its a drop in replacement, 10 minutes tops!

      Uh.....no that's unusual.

      Are you using trigger reset and doing deliberate, consistent pulls each time?

      You also may need to readjust placement of your finger on the trigger.

      Good luck.

        Get a 1911 so it will just bite the web of your hand lol.

          Yup, using the reset. As I said, my G21 never did this, but I notice it every time with my G23. I'd like to try to remedy this by being as minimally invasive as possible as this is my main carry gun.

          OH, and I have a 1911...it's always polite to me when I shoot it.

            Most don't but my new GI style 1911 doesn't like my high grip lol. I like the old school look so I just need to bob the hammer and it will be fine.

              The target triggers are known to bother fingers. The smooth triggers from the 17-19-22 series pistols should solve your problem. The cost should be less than $20 and it is easily replaced by an armorer, many armorers are here on the forum(I'm one) and it is a very quick change out.

                    I had the same problem with my

                    Glock 26.....the serrated trigger ate up my finger. So I ordered and installed a GLOCK 17 (smooth) trigger bar. (they are all the same and they all fit various model Glocks).

                    You can see the old trigger bar. The smooth trigger bar is perfect for me.

                    Seriously about a 10 minute job.

                          Gentle hands? I blow off 200+ each range visit with my G23 and never have had a problem. If anything my hand is sore from all the reloading. Thanks cali for those 20+ reloads.
